Spinning at Stanground.

Wed, 17th Sep 2014 - 3:06 p.m.

Thursday’s from 6:15 p.m. until 7:15 p.m. at Stanground Academy.

From Thursday 6th November until 26th March.

The Spinning Classes will again be on, at Stanground Academy, SE Peterborough, on Thursday night's from 6th November until 26th March. 6:15 - 7:15pm. We have booked the suite for a private session - just PACTRAC and the Fenland Clarion. We charge £3 for adults and £1 for juniors. (Their are other Spinning Classes at Stanground, but these are in with other members of the public and cost £4.) We have 20 bikes available on a first come, first served basis, and the classes do start on time, so please be a few minutes early to get set up.

Directions: From the Stanground Fire Station RAB, head in the direction of Farcet / Yaxley. It is the 3rd minor turning on the left. (The 2nd is the exit). We are in the new Sports Building - walk between Reception and the Fitness Suite, through the double doors and turn right into the Spinning Studio.

Spinning is a great way to enjoy a challenging cycling session during cold, dark winter nights. We have 20 bikes. Come along with water to keep well hydrated and a towel to mop your brow!!! If you are new to spinning it would be great if you could arrive a few minutes early for the first session, so that we have plenty of time to set you up on your bike before the session begins. The bikes all have double sided pedals, so will take either SDP cleats or training shoes.

Yes. The sessions will again last for at least an hour this year, as we know that many of you have some distance to travel, so want to make it worth your while. This session is designed for athletes (YOU), really looking to develop their strength and endurance over the winter months.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

This year there will be incentives to attend. Prizes to anyone attending 5, 10 and 16 times out of the 18.

Put Thursday 6th November in your diaries.

All finished now for another season. The clock's spring forward at the weekend, so more opportunity to get out in the lighter evenings. We had 37 people spinning in all this year, and most evenings were very well attended. Thanks to Wendy for taking these sessions once again.

17 earned a box of Hi-5 gels and drinks powders for attending 6 or more.

8 earned a Water Bottle courtesy of Bristows Cycles for attending 12 or more.

4 earned Easter Eggs for being ... Juniors.

You've got to be in it to win it, or as Wendy says "Winter miles, Summer smiles".
